Anora
We were delighted to previously screen this film but we have no current plans to screen it again. If you'd like to watch it in the cinema, consider a private hire to watch it with friends. That does rely on the film being available for private purchase.

| Showings |
Anora, a young sex worker from Brooklyn, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch. Once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as the parents set out for New York to get the marriage annulled.
Anora is a small film that feels much larger, elevated by humour, chaos, and human tenderness.
★★★★
Each change of tone is handled with sinuous ease by Baker, one of the best independent directors, who is finally getting the props he deserves.
★★★★★
Like Mikey Madison’s title character, Anora is pretty, messy, witty, wild, and highly competent, one of the funniest, saddest, and best films of the year.
★★★★
